MAGAZINES JoSTrans: The Journal of Specialised Translation This webpage is entirely dedicated to Translation Studies. As its creators say, JoSTrans try to create a place for translators where they can exchange ideas and provide publications and articles about specialized, non-literary translation. (http://www.jostrans.org/) There are contributions in a huge variety of languages, even including minority ones. This journal provides articles of the following areas:
Features of specialised language
General and practical issues in translation and interpreting
Subject field translation issues, i.e. medical, legal, financial, multi-media, localisation, etc
Theoretical issues in specialised translation
Aspects of training and teaching specialised translation
Revision and post-editing
This is an example of the kind of articles that this journal publicates. This one, entitled “Translation and/or translator skills as organising principles for curriculum development practice” by Elisa Calvo, Universidad Pablo de Olavide, Seville, Spain is one of the latest articles published: http://www.jostrans.org/issue16/art_calvo.php . Their main interest is creating a place where cultural aspects of specialized translation can be discussed. They have a complete editorial board with more than 20 members working on these publications every day. (http://www.jostrans.org/editorial.php) This journal provides a calendar of events, such as conferences, lectures, festivals and so on, related with translation studies all over the world (http://www.jostrans.org/events.php) SENDEBAR: SENDEBAR is a translation magazine of Translation and Interpretation Faculty of Granada University dedicated to translation about different disciplines and mostly of the works are written in Spanish however, are accepted some exceptions.

Thus, any student from anywhere of Spain or university can send their articles about translation. If we analyze the content of the magazine we will find a lot of different and curious articles like for instance a review about the Arabic translation of “El pirata garrapata” by Juan Muñoz. This article by Niza Aziz, talks about what she beared in mind when she translated this tale, like the analysis of material culture (foods and drinks, monetary units or elements about social culture like gestures and religious expressions in Arabic culture).

Tra i tanti fanciulli leggiadri e attraenti An Ling e Long Yang in due ere vivean. Graziosi germogli di pesco e di pruno, Radiosi boccioli splendenti lucean. Pregni di vita come nove primavere Sinuosi tra brina autunnal si flettean. Languidi sguardi e maniere eleganti, Parole e sorrisi intrisi di aromi. Mani congiunte in attesa di gioia Sotto coperte e lenzuola d’amor. Come due augelli in estasi loro Con ali accoppiate si librano in volo Con il cinabro si scrivon ti giuro Con me al tuo fianco mai più sarai solo. 昔日繁華子 安陵與龍陽 夭夭桃李花 灼灼有輝光 悅懌若九春 磬折似秋霜 流盻發姿媚 言笑吐芬芳 攜手等歡愛 宿昔同衣裳 願為雙飛鳥 比翼共翱翔 丹青著明誓 永世不相忘
EUP PUBLISHING The magazine Translation and Literature of Edinburgh University is a magazine which analyzes from their articles different aspects about translation making a review of each work. For instance I have founded an interesting article about the translation into a French of a Cervantes‘s work called “Los trabajos de Persiles y Sigismunda”. This review by Ellen R. Welch talks about a translation from sixteen century criticizing the manipulation from the French translator D’ Audiguier of Cervantes’s novel. D’Audiguier does not respect the original work of Cervantes defining his novel like “a long-winded novel” so he decides to change some of the expressions and details of the original novel in order to adapt them into a French style. Thanks to these kind of articles we can know many details about translation at different periods like Tudor’s dynasty or more contemporaries like Franz Kafka.
